Chapter 177: Gambling on Superman and Batman [1/27]

I'm a friend of Xiao Ai, this guy asked me to update so late!

――

"Superman and Batman?" asked Chen Tian in a puzzled voice.

Dan Fellman naturally heard Chen Tian's pause, and there was a hint of incredulity in his words.

And that's the effect he wants, and at the moment Warner Bros. really wants to start Superman and Batman again.

Superman has been a reboot that Warner has always wanted to reboot in the past decade, but it has spent hundreds of millions of dollars in ten years, and none of it has come out.

Some have scripts and directors refuse to accept them, some because the actors refuse to accept them, and some are disbanded before the filming starts because of the conflict in the filming location.

For various reasons, Warner's decade-long reboot of Superman has failed, and with the Spider-Man fire last year, Warner has remade up its mind to start Superman again.

But as always, many big directors have chosen to refuse.

Even if Warner gave Superman nearly $200 million in production fees, Chen Tian didn't seem to know about the news.

And Batman is not much better, and there is also a six-year vacuum period, the main reason is the box office and word-of-mouth fiasco at the end of the nineties.

In the past few years, there have been proposals, which also cost Warner a lot of money, but in the end they have not been able to present.

Although Superman and Batman are now brought up again as in the past, Dan Fellman doesn't know if he will be able to make it to the last step this time.

The main reason why he brought it up now was to deter Chen Tian and sue Chen Tianhuana with full sincerity.

Chen Tian only knew that later generations did start to reboot Batman and Superman in 05, and both were finally released.

However, although these two films are good at the box office, there are some gaps compared to Marvel's superheroes. But this gap isn't entirely inherent in superheroes themselves.

It is a small gap between the screenwriter and the director, the special effects and the technical level. In the end, it became a certain gap.

But there's no denying the immense influence of Superman and Batman. If it works properly.

From the script to the special effects director, all aspects are carefully processed and planned, and the final movie will not necessarily be worse than Marvel's.

As long as the quality of the film is not bad, rather than blindly pursuing special effects, but forgetting that the movie itself is a storytelling journey.

If you can tell a story well and handle all aspects well, then you can bring them back to life and gain a huge influence in the superhero market. But Chen Tian also knows how difficult it is to tell a story well.

"Yes, Superman and Batman, I guess Justin you must be a stranger, right?

I think you should know our sincerity, this is a confidential matter of our Warner Bros., if you are interested, maybe you can try it, but I can't guarantee that you will be recognized.

You know, it's not a small project to reboot Superman and Batman, even if we Warner Bros. are among the best at it, so please understand. ”

Dan Fehrman's words are skillful. At least if you can't cooperate with Chen Tian in Superman and Batman, it won't leave a bad impression on Chen Tian.

It also left room for maneuver for himself on these two projects, in case of a reboot Warner Bros. who doesn't look down on Chen Tian. Then he also has a reason to explain.

"I understand it's not going to be easy, and I'm honestly interested, but I also know it's a big challenge. ”

"So Justin, are you willing to try?"

"I don't know if I can do it, but I wouldn't mind trying it if you'd like to let me try, and if it will work, then I don't know.

However, I know that your company will have a lot of requirements, but if I were to try, I would like to have an absolute say in the company's appropriation.

If you are willing to believe me, then I will do my best to do it, and if not, then I can refund all the fees. ”

Chen Tian decided to take a gamble, but Chen Tian knew that neither of these two projects could be completed in a year.

From the script to the final shooting, the preparation period of one year is a short time.

Chen Tian thought clearly, this was a rare opportunity for him.

The success of the small system zuò is to accumulate funds and avoid relying on others.

And it is precisely because of the accumulation of funds that Chen Tian can now be sought after by many companies.

Winning the title of miracle director with a small system is just the beginning, if you have been focusing on the small system zuò, then Chen Tian is destined to leave people with a small cost impression.

Just like Hollywood actors, if you want to succeed in gaining more popularity, then a big-budget commercial film is the best way to gild.

The same is true for directors, blockbuster commercial films can double the value of a director.

If you can really do a good job on Superman or Batman, the benefits and aura that you will bring once you succeed are unimaginable.

However, Chen Tianke didn't know that Dan Fellman didn't know about the big production in the company's mouth, including excluding Superman and Batman.

Dan Felman didn't expect Chen Tian to make a decision so quickly, and it sounded like an extremely tempting condition for Warner Bros.

As long as Chen Tian's own preparation is not sufficient, then all the preliminary preparation costs of the appropriation will be returned.

That mention alone is enough to intrigue Warner Bros. president Alan Horn, considering that the superman and Batman films alone cost hundreds of millions of dollars in prep work over the past decade.

A chance to restart, even if it fails, it will not give the company any loss, and if it succeeds, then Dan Fellman will be destined to be the hero.

Although he didn't know in his heart whether Chen Tian, a low-cost miracle director, could do it, at least Chen Tian's answer made him very satisfied.

The only thing that worries him is Chen Tian's absolute right to speak.

The requirement that a director or a yellow person have the absolute right to speak may cause some people to resent it, but Dan Fellman has already thought about starting with the refund of the preparation fee if Chen Tian fails.

"Justin, I'll report back on your words, and I look forward to getting you good news. ”

Dan Fellman was so excited that he forgot that he actually had another purpose, which was to fight for the distribution rights of "The Queen Wears Prada".

"I also hope to get good news from you!" Chen Tian hung up the phone, still a little incredulous.

Superman and Batman, either of these two projects is a super difficult challenge, and if he can really go ahead, then it will be launched in 2015 at the earliest.

Chen Tian, who walked back, saw the Ellison brothers and sisters, and immediately laughed.

Because he found a better tiì, an opportunity that Warner couldn't refuse, and it was also a bigger adventure.

If it fails, then the loss is immeasurable, but Chen Tian is ready to speak out and ask the Ellison siblings.

If it succeeds, it will be much more than just helping Warner Bros. shoot, and it's a no-go gamble.

Once Warner's side gives an accurate answer, then this bet will be far more than League of Assassins. (To be continued......)
